65 _Faxing (Optional)
Receiving faxes manually using an extension
telephone
This feature works best when you are using an extension telephone
connected to the EXT socket on the back of your machine. You can receive
a fax from someone you are talking to on the extension telephone, without
going to the fax machine.
When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press
the keys 9 on the extension phone. The machine receives the fax.
Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the
remote machine, try pressing 9 once again.
To change the 9 to, for example, 3 , follow the next steps.
1. Press Machine Setup on the control panel.
2. Select Admin Setting. When the login message pops up, then enter
password and press OK. (See "Setting the authentication password" on
page 29.)
3. Press the Setup tab > Fax Setup > Receive Start Code.
4. Select On.
5. Press left/right arrows to display number 9.
6. Press OK.
Receiving in secure receiving mode
You may need to prevent your received faxes from being accessed by
unauthorized people. You can turn on secure receiving mode to restrict
printing of received faxes when the machine is unattended. In secure
receiving mode, all incoming faxes go into memory.
1. Press Machine Setup on the control panel.
2. Select Admin Setting. When the login message pops up, then enter
password and press OK. (See "Setting the authentication password" on
page 29.)
3. Press the Setup tab > Fax Setup > Secure Receive.
4. Select On.
5. Enter passcode with 4 digit number using the number keypad on the
control panel.
Receiving faxes in memory
Since your machine is a multi-tasking device, it can receive faxes while you
are making copies or printing. If you receive a fax while you are copying or
printing, your machine stores incoming faxes in its memory. Then, as soon
as you finish copying or printing, the machine automatically prints the fax.
ADJUSTING THE DOCUMENT SETTINGS
Before sending a fax, you can adjust the document settings, such as
resolution, darkness, color, duplex and so forth. Refer to explanation of this

whether the machine sends the fax on one side or both sides of the paper.
